Installing your IP Phone 1220

Connecting the LAN Ethernet cable

Note: Your IP Phone 1220 supports both AC power and PoE options, including IEEE 802.3 standard power. To use local AC power, you can order separately the optional AC adapter. To use PoE, where power is delivered over the CAT5 cable, the LAN must support PoE, and you do not need an AC adapter.

Connect your IP Phone to your LAN using a CAT5e Ethernet cable to enable full functionality of your IP Phone. If your Ethernet port is equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE), your IP Phone can be powered through the LAN port. Do not extend the LAN Ethernet cable outside the building.
